The second, at 2.5, struck in the same spot, but was slightly shallower at a depth of 2.7 miles.
Residents across northern Sonoma County, including Cloverdale, Geyserville, Healdsburg, and parts of Mendocino and Lake counties, reported feeling moderate shaking.

The first, and largest, earthquake happened in an area that frequently experiences seismic activity because of nearby faults and geothermal activity associated with The Geysers.
